Message-Id: <1198421495-31481-34-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com> Date: Sun, 23 Dec 2007 16:51:18 +0200 From: Avi Kivity <avi@...ranet.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, kvm-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net Subject: [PATCH 33/50] KVM: MMU: Disable write access on clean large pages By forcing clean huge pages to be read-only, we have separate roles for the shadow of a clean large page and the shadow of a dirty large page. This is necessary because different ptes will be instantiated for the two cases, even for read faults.
